Windows 7 has completely released but still many of us are confused for best security utility for windows 7, as technology world is going ahead towards the peak and in this situation everyone wants to have the best , including security utilities.. there are many security utilities but I found some of them best for windows 7.
As an antivirus software is must for protection.I picked the best antivirus software based on its virus detection abilities, features, protection. Each each of the following products provides great virus protection for Windows 7.
BitDefender Antivirus 2010 offers rock-solid security, simple usability, effective use of resources, and a valuable price tag, BitDefender Antivirus 2010 adds some additional features that continue to improve overall PC performance and protection and peace of mind, without upsetting your PC performance or paycheck.
Norton Internet Security 2010 and Norton Antivirus 2010 have been specifically designed to support Windows 7. Those with Norton Antivirus 2009 would receive automatic upgrade to Norton Antivirus 2010.
Kaspersky AV is a mixed box:
1. Even after all the updates Kaspersky Antivirus still lacks some valuable features compared to the other anti-viruses.
2. The new version has removed it best feature, the Safe Run program sandbox, where you can use the anti-virus even in Safe Mode.
3. On the other hand it has added a better anti-virus engine, which runs at blazing speed compared to the free edition anti-viruses.
4. A new feature allow customers to send their PC’s scans for analysis for better protection. However, this costs an extra $20.
Would recommend using the trial and seeing whether you like it before committing to this anti-virus.But you can also activate it using KEYS.
One of the oldest security software providers, McAfee combines the best of anti-virus, firewall, and intrusion prevention technology.
AVG is a light-weight but effective antivirus offers protection against viruses, worms and Trojans, spyware, adware and identity-theft.
Avira offers real time protection with AntiVir Guard. The personal version is completely free from private use. The personal version works without any issues. It also offers the ability to pause, stop, and resume a scan from this panel.
If you’re comfortable running software that is still in development, the Avast 5 beta is looking good. That said, it’s antivirus software – is using an unfinished antivirus something you really want to do? That’s your call, of course.
It’s a free download from Microsoft that is simple to install, easy to use, and always kept up to date so you can be assured your PC is protected by the latest technology.
It’s easy to tell if your PC is secure — when you’re green, you’re good. It’s that simple. Runs quietly and efficiently in the background so that you are free to use your Windows-based PC the way you want—without interruptions or long computer wait times.
As you can tell from the download links, Comodo offers different downloads for 32 and 64-bit systems. Make sure you grab the right one!
The one knock on Panda’s offering is its slow manual scans. Then again, you probably won’t need to run those all that often, so it might not be an issue
